śrī-rājovācakasya hetoḥ parityaktāācāryeṇātmanaḥ surāḥetad ācakṣva bhagavañchiṣyāṇām akramaṁ gurau

Translation:

Mahārāja Parīkṣit inquired from Śukadeva Gosvāmī: O great sage, why did the spiritual master of the demigods, Bṛhaspati, reject the demigods, who were his own disciples? What offense did the demigods commit against their spiritual master? Please describe to me this incident.

Purport:

Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura comments: “This Seventh Chapter describes how Bṛhaspati was offended by the demigods, how he left them and the demigods were defeated, and how the demigods, following the instructions of Lord Brahmā, accepted Viśvarūpa as the priest to perform their sacrifice.”
